Cilantro chutney/ Kothamalli Thogayal/ Side dish for Idly Dosa

Cilantro chutney, which i present here is our home style preparation...Mom,MIL both make this chutney...It has a bit of sweet and hot flavour...It can also be prepared without adding jaggery...That way also it taste good...But adding a pinch of jaggery surely enhances the taste...We like it a little bit sweet too..hence i added 1/8 cup jaggery...Try this and enjoy...
